2011 AFC Flacco-Brady

2009 AFC Peyton-Sanchez
2008 AFC Ben-Flacco

So in the bold are the QB's picked top in the top 11. 5 in total. Compared to the 3 not picked in the top 11.
Even with Brady and to a lesser extent Wilson skewing the numbers, the conclusion is clear. Top 1st round pick QB's are the ones who go deeper into the post season. And before you go "how many top 1st round QB's bust," remember that 100x more QB's are drafted rounds 2-7 that flame out.
Thanks for playing. Bad 'ol BADOL.
